The existing WordPerfect Import filter uses Writer's type detection. This is
done in an suboptimal way: (1) Some documents that are not supported by the
importer are detected as supported; (2) Some WP document that are supported by
the importer are not detected as such.
The current typedetection, basically looks at the header. Nevertheless, WP4.2
documents do not have header and other documents, like WPG images, do have a
0xff, 'W', 'P', 'C' header and are not supported by the importer.
The solution would be to make the com.sun.star.Writer.WordPerfectImportFilter
component implement the service com.sun.star.document.ExtendedTypeDetection.
Like this, libwpd which is behind the import, could say whether it can import a
given file or not.
